Claude, inside your Microsoft estate

Most of our enterprise clients already run Microsoft 365. So the question is rarely Claude or Microsoft, it's how the two work together. We deploy Anthropic's Claude inside the Microsoft environment your people already use, from Copilot to Azure AI Foundry.

Why we recommend it

We meet your estate where it is

Your organisation has likely standardised on Microsoft 365, Azure, and Entra. That's the environment Claude has to live in, and we treat it as a strength, not a constraint. We understand the individual parts of the Microsoft AI stack and how each one fits an Anthropic-led programme.

  • Microsoft 365 Copilot already in your tenant, with Claude where it adds depth
  • Azure AI Foundry as a governed home for running Anthropic's Claude models
  • Copilot Studio for building agents and extensions across your business apps
  • Security and identity inside your existing Entra, Purview, and Azure governance
  • One programme across the estate, no parallel vendor relationships to manage

The ecosystem

The Microsoft AI stack, and how we use it

We work across the parts of Microsoft's platform that matter for an enterprise Claude programme.

Model choice

Microsoft 365 Copilot

Microsoft 365 Copilot is the assistant layer across Teams, Outlook, Word, and Excel, and it is increasingly model-agnostic: the same surface can run OpenAI or Anthropic models. We use that to put Claude to work inside Copilot, so your people get Claude's reasoning without leaving your Microsoft licence or security boundary.

  • Run Claude inside the Copilot licences and apps you already pay for
  • Anthropic's models with no new vendor surface and no data leaving your Microsoft boundary
  • Change enablement so adoption sticks across the apps people already use

Copilot Cowork

Microsoft built Copilot Cowork with Anthropic, bringing Claude into Microsoft 365 Copilot as a cloud agent. It plans and carries out multi-step work across your M365 apps, grounded in your own data with checkpoints for your approval, the clearest route to Anthropic-led agentic work where your people already are.

  • Claude doing multi-step work across Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, and Office
  • Plans with approval checkpoints, grounded in your data via the Microsoft Graph
  • Runs inside Microsoft 365's identity, permissions, and compliance controls

Agents & Extensions

Copilot Studio

Copilot Studio lets you build custom agents and extend Copilot into your business systems. We design and build these alongside your team, and connect them to the right models for the job.

  • Custom agents grounded in your business data
  • Extensions into line-of-business systems
  • Governed, maintainable build patterns

Run Claude in Azure

Azure AI Foundry

Foundry is where this comes together: you can run Anthropic's Claude models inside your own Azure environment, under your governance, alongside the rest of the Microsoft stack. It's the cleanest way to be Anthropic-led without leaving Azure.

  • Anthropic's Claude models running inside your Azure tenant
  • Your data, your network, your governance boundary
  • A single platform for models, agents, and evaluation

Why Kowalah

Why Kowalah for Microsoft and Claude

We're Anthropic-led, and we know the Microsoft estate well enough to make Claude work inside it cleanly. That combination is rarer than it sounds.

Claude in Foundry, done properly

We deploy Anthropic's Claude models in Azure AI Foundry under your existing governance, so being Anthropic-led never means leaving your Microsoft environment.

Coexistence, not competition

Copilot for everyday productivity, Claude for the deeper reasoning and agentic work. We help you draw the line and get value from both.

Inside your existing controls

We work within your Entra identity, Purview governance, and Azure security from day one. No new vendor surface for your IT team to police.

One programme across the estate

The same Kowalah team and methodology spans Claude and your Microsoft tooling, so there are no gaps where accountability disappears.

How we deploy

How we deploy Claude across your Microsoft estate

The same phase-gated approach, applied to a Microsoft-standardised environment.

01

Assess the estate

We map your Microsoft 365, Azure, and identity setup, and where Copilot is already in play, so the plan fits what you run.

02

Configure in Azure

We set up Azure AI Foundry to run Anthropic's Claude models inside your tenant, under your governance and security policies.

03

Build first wins

Working with your team, we build real solutions, whether that's a Copilot Studio agent or a Claude workflow in Foundry, that deliver value in weeks.

04

Enable and govern

We train your people across Copilot and Claude, and hand back an operating model your team can run, not a dependency.
